Gunter (
pronounced /ˈgʊn.tə/) ( pronounced /ˈgʌn.tɚ/) was a[4] male,[2] human[1] cyborg[5] who belonged to a pirate crew during the New Republic Era. Originally serving under Captain Silvo,[4] he swore his loyalty to the new leader, Brutus,[3] in the aftermath of a failed raid on a merchant freighter,[4] ascending to the position of First Mate.[5] When Silvo later escaped from prison,[6] Gunter took part in the pursuit of the mutinied captain, ultimately arresting him on Lanupa. During Silvo's trial, Gunter remained skeptical of his promise to lead the crew to At Attin, an isolated planet rumored to accommodate Old Republic credit mints.[2] However, when Silvo killed Brutus to take his place,[7] Gunter did not not oppose him. During the Invasion of At Attin, he commanded the crew's pirate frigate and failed to repel the New Republic's counteroffensive.[8]
